Here's some perspective for you (if your team isn't travelling well)

I know this isn't AFL, but I thought it was...interesting.

More perspective....it's only round 7.

 

[LeverPuller]

186 says hello.

 

[Fyfetheknife]

Wow, that's 17 goals a quarter

 

[BM123]

lmao at the losing coaches cliche comments.

 

[Malifice]

lmao at the losing coaches cliche comments.

This one got me:

"There's still positive signs there so I'm pretty happy with that."

They kicked a goal every 70 seconds non stop for 2 straight hours. They had 91 scoring shots to your two, and flogged you by 429 points. What were these positive signs? The 1 goal 1 you kicked in the middle there?

"To Gordon's credit, they really did show us how the game's supposed to be played and our boys found out the hard way that they've got a lot of work to do."

 

[YES! YES! YES!]

Wow. Did they have 18 Jack Watts clones playing or something lol...?

 

[pablo668]

Beginning to think I could get a game with that losing team.

 

[Rotayjay]

A goal on average every 70 seconds? That score is probably around about the limit for Australian rules football. If I was one of those winning players, I'd frame that photo of the scoreboard.

Some media ( Channel 7?) promoting this is a good story.

I think the opposite . Its terrible

. I dont know much about the league/teams involved but country footy is in big big trouble when things like this happen. Can destroy clubs and communities

They'd beat Carlton at the rate we're going this year.

Sadly, this seems to be pretty much becoming the norm in some country leagues these days.

I played in a lightning carnival team that lost by 150 points in two 15 minute halves. That was a tough game.

Jeee-suss...

Meh. Geelong West's U/18s in the then VFA had 110 and two other games of 90+ goals kicked against them in the 80s. A ff in one of the 90 goal games, iirc, kicked 54 or 56. The ff in the 110 goal game kicked 48.

 

[rEALdEAL86]

'We were up by 200 at half time' lol

 

[I Lost My Keays]

Still better than Carlton

 

[schmuttt]

I thought the 204-1 game I played in a couple weeks ago was bad, jesus....

 

[bullish23]

Honestly what's the point....

Why didn't the winning team coach at half time offer to mix up the teams?

 

[Sprout]

I genuinely want to know what the losing coach thought the "positive signs" were.

 

[BlakeyNoFlakey]

seriously.... Smythesdale make witches hats look competitive.

 

[newcastlefalcon]

I want to know who was the Gordon player whose opponent kicked a goal?
Surely he's looking at a stint in the reserves or a bench/vest start next game!!!
